Hello, I am a guy who is looking for a career change. I completed a FM residency and did not like it (way too clinical and broad for me). So I am doing a second residency in Preventive Medicine, but I found out that there is no such thing as a preventive medicine doctor. So I am now looking at other alternatives (yes, a third residency ).
I like Pathology, but it is too late from me now. I am 36 YO and Pathology is at least another 5 years. Plus the job market in Pathology is not good from what I hear. So I have been looking at Medical Genetics as an alternative. I love working with kids, and the field has many Pathology-like characteristics. I have been looking at the job market for Medical Genetics, but there seems to be very few info on it. The salary seems to be on the low end, and the openings are very few. So I came here to ask you guys about your experience with Med. Genetics. From your experience, are there jobs out there? Do Med. Genetics specialists have a hard time finding full-time jobs?
Thank You.
